Nars Single Eye Shadow Reviews

Nars makes some of my favorite shadows. Some times I love it more than UD. They're so rich and pigmented. They come in gorgeous colors that are true and extremely high quality. I LOVE this shadow!

these eyeshadows are awesome. but since nars shadow was so expensive, i could only afford to get one. i love it though! its SUPER pigmented. the quality and length of wear of the eyeshadow is amazing. super blendable and so many colors to choose from. i highly recommend! (but save your money and get a cheaper eyeshadow thats just as good!)

Daphne is a deeply pigmented matte purple shadow. The color is bold and dark but still quite wearable. I love to use it wet to line my eyes; it really makes my brown peepers POP! The packaging is fabulous I love that it comes with a decent sized mirror and is made with the famous rubber material. The colors in this line do not crease [but I use a primer] and there are so many bright pigments to ch...read moreoose from! I love to layer this color with the Hollywoodland soft shadow pencil the gold makes this color really stand out and look unique. I will definitely be getting some more colors from this line soon! :]— 4 years, 5 months ago

After trying many brands of eyeshadows, Nars are my favorite. Besides color selection there's different textures from matte, satin, shimmery and glittery. And although the compact is tiny I love the convenience of having a mirror, The eyeshadows are very smooth and pigmented and easy to apply.

This eyeshadow has great color selection that are mostly very wearable shades. It is highly pigmented and easily blendable. Most shades are silky smooth and well milled, except for high shimmer shades that are little less blendable I thought, but overall, worth the investment, because of it's large size pan, it will last you for ever.

Nars colors are unique, caution though start with a vey light hand when applying, pigment is heavy and doesn't require a lot. The price is a bit much so I only buy the colors I really love.

Galapagos is a deep brown with gold flecks. I was a bit disappointed with this product. I bought it because I swatched it on my hand and the gold flecks looked so beautiful and I felt I just had to have it! When I used it on my eyes, I was a bit disappointed because the gold flecks seemed to come off easily. I did use a primer and I did pat it on instead of gliding it with a stiff eye brush, but a...read morell I got was a dark brown on my lid =( I dont know whether or not I was using the wrong technique but I try and try it time and again with different primers and brushes, but I get the same results everytime. It is definetly pigmented though, which is a plus.— 4 years, 6 months ago

Except for the price tag, my only gripe with Nars's eyeshadow is that crumbles when you touch it with a brush. I bought a more high-end eyeshadow brush to combat this, and it still did this [shrug]. I suppose I'm so obsessive about preserving this shadow because it's amazing. The colors are gorgeous, go on silky smooth, and last all day. They don't migrate, even to the corners of my eyes and down my cheeks like so many other brands. Viva la Nars!

My favorite buy over and over is Fathom. It is very sheer and the shimmer is not as strong as it looks in the compact. I always apply over a primer, especially as it is sheer. This is lovely applied over other shadows as well. If you just love the color alone, keep applying layers till you get it "Just Right" not to light and not to dark.

Nars' eyeshadows offer fantastic range of color. They are fun but not trashy. The packaging is strong and sleek, and you get a lot of bang for (unfortunately also a lot of) your buck. I get a good long lasting coverage from these. I always use these when I want dramatic eyes and a lot of positive attention.
